Comments Thread For: Frank Warren Explains Reasons For Fury's Interim, Wilder Delay

[R_Walken]

I believe it

Arum said he wanted to set up a intern fight build Fury profile and so the rematch can do 1m PPV and after 1 fight on a app and being pushed by Espn apparently this will make it happen

And instead of a5 fight deal that was just offered Arum says he is prepared to make just the Rematch with no other fight attached for a fall fight ( why not just send a 2 fight contract to start?)

This seems almost believable in so many ways not just lies on top of lies wrapped in bow to make it seem that the rematch will happen in the fall with Warren playing good cop while Arum just being Arum starts lying about everything .Hope I’m wrong but this rematch isn’t happening at all or at least till the Espn contract expires

At this point, who really gives a fuck?

This fight will not see the sunlight of day if ESPN attempts to cut Al Haymon, Stephen Espinoza, CBS and Fox out the picture and try to do an exclusive network deal with Deontay Wilder. That's a deal breaker right there. Which makes this fight dead on arrival.

Frank just promote Fury's next fight. Stop giving us BS about the fight been bigger in the autumn. We all know that you worry if Wilder puts him on his back like he did in the 12th he won't survive, the end of your cash cow and potential Joshua money spinner in the UK.

Makes sense

[BattlingNelson]

Ok. It’s still on for 2019.

Who wants to bet that that’s actually the case? I very much doubt it.

TLDR: We, the network companies and promoters, only care about how long we can milk the cow. We don't care whether or not y'all want to see fighters fight in their prime.

In other words, water is wet

They already fought. Wilder lost and wasn't concerned Fury wasn't in prime condition when he took that L.

Boxing is a business, but it's a business that revolves around selling fights to paying customers.

If we the customers are not getting the fights we want at the right time then maybe we need to start talking with our pocketbooks.

Just to remind these scumbag promoters that there is no business without us. And our wishes should be given due attention and respect.

that would require people uniting....and people arent good at that...at least for a solid cause....the only time people are good at it is like if some kid is sick....

There was literally no need for this article as he just repeated what was said earlier this week lol. Still putting enough blame towards TR/ESPN to cover for himself for the fight not happening next.

It's fine, no need to explain yourself any further. You guys chose to go another route, not the end of the world.

What doesn't make sense is mentioning ESPN can be seen across 85 million homes.....When Fury will be fighting on ESPN+. Give us the numbers to the amount of subscribers they have and how many people will watch Fury's next fight on that platform. If he was to fight on ESPN, that is one thing but it isn't reality here.

He is not the one repeating what he said it is the reporter repeating what has been said and worse, making news out of it

[DaNeutral.]

What happened to all the good things you Wilder fans were saying about Warren and how easy he is to deal with compared to sleazy Hearn?????? Narrative changes to suit the agenda and now Warren is everything you were saying he wasnt not long ago. You guys make me chuckle.
